Holly,
Sounds like the old graphic arts museum on Gay Street, around
the corner from City Hall (and my long-time workplace, the Peale Museum.) It’s
long gone (as is the Peale as a city history museum), and I’m pretty sure the
presses went to the Museum of Industry.

Back in 1985 I did volunteer work at a hole-in-the-wall printing
history museum that was almost in sight of the harbor except for being buried
on a side street. Privately owned. I suspect that it's no longer
there, but I wondered if the presses eventually went to the Museum of
Industry.
Anybody know? I left Baltimore in 1988 and haven't been back
since then.
